I've spent part of my day watching 93 year old Clara whip up some of the meals she and her family ate during the depression.
This set of videos on youtube is fascinating, informative and just in time.
My depression era shopping cart might look like this:
canned peas
sack of potatoes
dried pasta
rice
lentils
eggs
canned milk
sugar
flour
onions
yeast
tomato sauce
salt & pepper

That is nothing short of amazing. I remember depression era people even keeping the tape on their presents to re-use.
